Lucky Few by Kathryn Ormsbee

Adding this to the pile of "books with a diabetic character who has a dramatic low blood sugar incident purely for plot purposes" (most recent entrant: [b: Top Ten Clues You're Clueless|20646933|Top Ten Clues You're Clueless|Liz Czukas|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1392234549s/20646933.jpg|39940198]). That said, I liked it fine. Again, some of the writing around her diabetes strikes me as awkward/didn't entirely make sense, but some of it was quite good/actually resonated with me! A big plus. I meant to take note of some of the passages that I liked but forgot to before I had to bring it back to the library, oh well.
The protagonist doesn't wear a pump - but it's addressed. She does actually talk about wearing one for a while and then going back on shots because she didn't like feeling like a robot or something. Personally, I couldn't relate less. Love my robot pancreas so much!!!
